[ "$actual" = "$expected" ] in my shell script did actually report inequality. Printing both variables with echo "'$expected'" and also piping them through sha1sum like echo -n "$expected" | sha1sum (even tried without the -n flag) clearly showed that they were the same. In the end, set -x saved my day. actual contained captured stdout of a process with proper newlines, but I had used expected="foo\\nbar", hence the comparison saw a literal backslash-n and no newline…

But that also means I have some time for my computer later today. I just have to figure out what to do first :)
Probably code a bit, or reinstall one of my computers, I've been wanting to run #OpenBSD again, I tried it on one of my laptops, but wifi did not work for some reason, but I have some wifi dongles - so I'll try with that, or install on one of my other laptops.
I have a #Thinkpad #x200 with #libreboot, I might give it a shot there - all though it takes some time to get it to work with libreboot, I did install it some years ago though, so I think that should work again now. Either way I'll figure out something to tinker with today!

I wonder if this goes away during winter when the humidity drops … That’s my only hope. 😅

yarnd is centralised if you run a large instance with a large number of users.The design of the software itself discourages an operator from doing this, the more users you have, the more resources the pod would consume. It was never designed for this.yarnd is however strictly decentralised, with _some_ distributed features that allow "peering pods" to talk to each other, often exchanging "missing Twts" among peers. This is useful to correct chains or fill in missing roots -- Because the whole "network" is decentralised. This is one of the downsides of a decentralised system, so we had to figure out a "middle ground".

Highly recommended, @prologic, in case you haven't used that either. :-)

My workmate was also a bit caught in this disaster when coming home from vacaction and got her train ride rescheduled the day after in the morning. Pretty crazy reports from over there.
This is what Audacity looks like after watching YouTube for a while:

The screen is two years old …
These ghost images go away after a while, but they’re annoying as heck. 😳

Oof. 😂 I personally go with “free software” for these reasons: https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/open-source-misses-the-point.html (In fact, I misunderstood “open source” for a very long time. Embarrassing, even.)

I’d go with “human readable formats”. Some arguments here: https://blog.codinghorror.com/there-aint-no-such-thing-as-plain-text/

Figured you'd be interested in this @prologic
I kind of miss the audible feedback of home computers, too. When the drives were active, you knew the machine was doing something. 🙃
(I still have hard disks, not just SSDs, but they’re so quiet these days that you hardly hear them anymore.)
